entry for EJournals in Jabref
Slightly off topic: Jabref complains about an enty like this one:
@Article{Okabe2014,
.
journal = {PLoS One},
year = {2014},
volume = {9},
pages = {e109693},
.
What has to be used for the entry type instead of @Article{..
?
I am using biblatex/biber. I went through the JabRef help but did not
find the relevant hint.

About the Save popup window.......
Hello LyX Users, Using LyX Version 2.3.2 - Debian Buster [testing] and FVWM So this might be a feature that has yet to be included again, or not, so just curious. When using LyX previously when "Crtl + S" or "Ctrl + Shift + S" to save a file was invoked. It supplied, on the toolbar across the top of the window that popped up, a small box that said "Template". That doesn't appear any more. I am unable to find how I might place it back by looking through "Preferences". Cannot identify what I must enable to return it to that place. So thought I may get a hint here. Maybe it has been removed forever. To know that would also be helpful. Allowing me to cease looking for it whenever a new thought in the attempt to find it occurs.

Re: Change specific pages from portrait to landscape mode [SOLUTION]
On Fri, 10 May 2019, Rich Shepard wrote: printer would get the last page right or not. (I'm too environmentally conscious to test it.) Paul, The solution (for an individual page): pdftk input.pdf 1north output out.pdf changes the orientation so when you view the table the 'top' is on the left in portrait mode. To change the page within an document (e.g., my current document) I use: pdftk input.pdf cat 1-14 15-endnorth output out.pdf and this rotates the last three pages 90 degrees counterclockwise.

Carpe weekend, Rich I opened your document and viewed it using PDF (pdflatex), PDF (dvipdfm), PDF (ps2pdf) and also exported to DVI and ran dvips on it manually, then viewed the PS file. (I don't have a built in converter for that last one.) In every case, I deleted the contents of the LyX temp directory first, to avoid one method contaminating the next one. All four approaches produced a table in landscape orientation. With the first and third (pdflatex and ps2pdf), the last page was "sideways" in the PDF file (meaning the text was "right side up" to the viewer but the "paper" was rotated). With the second and fourth (dvipdfm and dvips), the last page was narrow end up but the text was rotated sideways. So all four had a landscape final page, although I'm not sure whether a printer would get the last page right or not. (I'm too environmentally conscious to test it.) Paul

Re: Change specific pages from portrait to landscape mode
On Fri, 10 May 2019, Paul A. Rubin wrote: Care to post a MWE? Paul, I needed to finish the document so it could be sent to a regulator so I clipped off those pages and made them into separate documents in landscape format. These are appended to the main document using pdftk. My web searches found several solutions that apparently work well with LaTeX but the one specific to pdflatex did not work with LyX. The ability to re-orient a page from portrait to landscape ought to be included in LyX. Yet when I checked the manuals and wiki for information on rotating a header, paragraph, and table I found nothing. I suppose I could cobble together a two-page MWE some time this weekend.
